Choose two colors of DK weight yarn to knit this top-down pullover. The neckline features a folded hem in twisted ribbing followed by garter stitch short rows to raise the back of the neck. Stripes and simple slip stitches form the zig zag yoke motif. Select a contrast color or bold color pop for this geometric yoke detail. The remaining fabric is knitted in a diagonal textured rib for the body and sleeves. Twisted ribbing finished the cuffs and body ribbing for crisp clean edges. Have fun playing with color and texture for yoked Westknits sweater!
